  We are returning to France for another  great summer read by Gillian Harvey . The Village Cafe in the Loire  was published by Boldwood on July 12th.   High-flyer Becky Thorne cannot believe what she’s being told. She doesn’t need to be signed off for burnout! Life has been a bit chaotic lately, that’s all. As if dealing with her enviable job and permanent meddling from her mother aren’t enough, she’s also inherited a café in the Loire from an estranged great-aunt, complete with sitting tenant who refuses to budge. But nobody stands in Becky’s way! Ignoring her best friend Amber’s advice, she decides to storm over to France and sort the tenant out. Then she can finally get the café sold and jump back on the career ladder. What she doesn’t count on is the tenant being Pascale, who is six feet of tall, dark, handsome and extremely grumpy about her plans for change. Not to mention the village and the secrets it holds about her past. Becky’s path to succes...

One Day and Forever by Shari Low #Review

 

One Day and Forever by Shari Low was published by Boldwood Books on January 25th. 


As dawn breaks, four people are planning journeys that could change their lives forever…

Kara McIntyre is supposed to be jetting off to her destination wedding in Hawaii. However, a last-minute hitch appears to have left her without a job, home and, more importantly, a fiancé.

TV sensation Ollie Chiles and Kara always have each other’s backs. But when his wife goes viral in a compromising clinch with another man, Ollie must choose between supporting his best friend in her hour of need or going home to save his marriage.

Alice Brookes is flying away to a new life after surviving a horrendous marriage and a very public scandal... until a stranger brings a letter from the past that could change everything.

After saying goodbye to someone he loves, Zac Conlan should be heading back to Dublin. Now a shocking discovery is threatening to change his plans and his future.

When weather delays their flights, Kara, Ollie, Alice and Zac discover that storms are brewing… and the turbulence is about to shake their worlds.


 

My Thoughts

In some ways, this continues the story after Shari Low's One Long Weekend. You can read my review here. Alice Brookes has spent time getting over the marriage which has blighted her life and is preparing to fly off to a new life. It is a whole new start for her but she knows that she is going to miss her friends who have supported her. Before she goes,ghosts from the past appear and rake up some long buried secrets. 

    I enjoyed meeting the new characters and thought that they were skilfully melded into the story in a convincing manner. Several are at crossroads in their life, with love, betrayal and reconciliation all on the cards. With story threads running through different generations, there is plenty of variety to keep you engrossed. They also have to work out who is genuine and who is putting on a false act.

In short: A day to change several lives.
